Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) won a vote on Nov. 19 that essentially assures that she will become the next chair of the House Oversight and Reform Committee.
Maloney, 73, became acting chairwoman following the death of Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) last month. Maloney has had her own health issues, being hospitalized less than two weeks before the move after nearly fainting at a vigil.
